The Artist in the Ambulance, Thrice's third album, came out on Island on July 22, 2003, the Irvine, California, band's first major-label release. Brian McTernan produced it, with sessions spread across Bearsville Studios in New York and 2 Maryland rooms, Salad Days Studios in Beltsville and Phase Studios in College Park.
This is Thrice at full tilt: melodic hardcore built on heavily distorted guitars, Teppei Teranishi's lead lines darting over the top, Eddie and Riley Breckenridge yanking the rhythm through tricky time changes, and Dustin Kensrue singing with his throat wide open. "All That's Left" was the lead single, and "Stare at the Sun" also found its way onto alternative radio. Critics mostly singled out the musicianship and the songs, and it reached number 16 on the Billboard 200, their first time on that chart. A re-recorded version with guest singers appeared in 2023.
